Deskripsi
Erythroderma or exfoliative dermatitis is characterized by erythema and scaling affecting more than 90% of the body surface area. Drug-induced erythrodermas are relatively uncommon in children but can be potentially life-threatening. We hereby report an unusual case of erythroderma due to oral intake of Giloy (Tinospora cordifolia) in a 10-year-old child.
